Those suffering from colerectal cancer and trying to get the Provincial Liberals to pay for the drug Avastin have a voice taking up their cause. Rothesay Conservative MLA Margaret Ann Blaney is standing behind them to try and get the Province to put up three million dollars to cover the cost of the drug. Blaney tells CHSJ News, the priority list for Premier Graham and his party appears to be mis-guided.
The cost of the drug is close to $70,000 dollars a year and this Province is one of two left in the country that won't cover the cost of Avastin.
